Schooner Island Tour
A traditional wooden saveiro through the bay's best beaches and snorkel spots. The easiest, most rewarding way to see Paraty's islands.

Paraty's bay has 65 islands, and the vast majority are beaches-only (no hotels, no roads) — which is exactly what makes them lovely. A saveiro schooner tour is the simplest way to see them.
Boats depart from the main Paraty pier around 11am and return before sunset. The typical route stops at three beaches (Praia da Lula or Ilha Comprida are reliably good) and two snorkel points. Lunch is grilled fish on-board; the bar stays open.
If you prefer a private experience, Bianca can arrange a smaller boat for your group with a custom route — quieter, more flexible, and worth the upgrade for couples and families.
The water here is warm, the fish are curious, and Ilha Grande rises on the horizon like a second continent.
Tell Bianca your preferred day and number of guests — she'll book it through her partners and hold the spot.
